Recently, an annual large-scale social action "McDonald's" has started to help children in need of support. This year, McDonald's customers will help children undergoing long-term treatment stay with their loved ones. The vast world experience of the Ronald McDonald House Charitable Foundation in creating homes for parents at children's hospitals will be applied in Russia for the first time.

In 2012, all proceeds from the sale in November of wire rings made according to children's sketches, as well as French fries on November 20, will be donated to the construction of the first Ronald McDonald House in Russia. It will be a real “Home away from home” for families whose children are undergoing long-term treatment at the Children's Republican Clinical Hospital in Kazan. The project aims to create the most comfortable living conditions for parents on the territory of the hospital, so as not to separate children from loved ones during treatment. The Ronald McDonald House will be able to host more than 600 families annually.

“November 20 (2012 - ed.) Is a special day at McDonald's. On this day, each of our million guests can help children who are seriously ill, and their parents, who, together with doctors, help children recover, because when they are together, any illness recedes. In this case, McDonald's connects those who need support and those who are ready to help others, but perhaps do not yet know how to do this. And I am sincerely glad that social and charitable initiatives in Russia are finding more and more resonance in the hearts of people, said H. H.
